I Became an Academy Regular - I Became an Academy Regular 227
◈ [Explore the essence above] (4)
I drank hot water and cleared my mind.
The unpleasant odor and odor in the body gradually disappeared, but the complex mind still remains.
As I distanced myself from the crack that appeared next to the bed, the golden system that appeared in front of me immediately disappeared. As I got closer just in case, luckily, I remembered it again.
Apparently, the cracks are permanently maintained. Depending on whether I choose to return or not.
Whoops! First, after washing everything, I dried my hair with hot air that combines fire and wind properties. Since wind is an attribute that can organically match with various attributes, it was very easy to express magic in terms of application.
I quickly dried my body, put on my clothes, and went outside.
And there were cracks that still radiated their presence.
First of all, I’ll have to contact him to say he’s back to the academy. I’ve sent a message to important people that I’m back for a while.
As if there was a meeting, the replies came back quickly. There was no other change, except to rest or take a rest. Um, was it lucky?
In fact, if anything else happened in less than a week, it was a headache. We need to stabilize the alliance quickly so we can climb the tower quickly. For that to happen, the situation had to help a lot as if nothing else happened like now.
I leaned against the wall, fiddling with my phone.
[- Seo-Han. Aren’t you sleeping?]
Even after I washed and came out, it didn’t go away, so it must have looked strange to the Holy Sword’s eyes. But how do you sleep?
I slid towards the bed.
[-Do you want to return?]
Cracks that can only be seen with my eyes are fluttering next to the bed like this. When the golden flashing system came up, I couldn’t ignore it.
I don’t even know what the judgment on the crack will be. If your fingertips even touch the cracks, you may accept it as a will to return.
For the Holy Sword, it would be strange to leave the bed and stand still. I carefully pulled my tired body up and climbed onto the bed. Then he turned around and lay down on a pillow.
“I am so tired that I can’t sleep.”
He looked up at the ceiling and muttered. A hum echoed from the side, as if it was a sign that the crack was maintained.
[-I understand. So do I.]
“You are an ego sword.”
···Understanding what. Rather, why did that rift appear all of a sudden? I never thought that there would be other conditions besides seeing the ending of the scenario in the condition of ‘my own ending’.
Did you achieve a feat that wasn’t even in your achievements? This probably means that you have mastered the magic of the wind attribute. It’s an impossible tech tree in the original.
‘What is certain is….’
If you go into that rift, you can definitely return to reality. So far, the system has never lied to me. It was because he always informed me about the start of a scenario or a change of situation like ‘Hell Mode’. Now, there was no reason to display lies as the bait of return.
But I won’t go back.
Unintentionally, the roles and responsibilities that I am currently in charge of are in a very heavy state. If he turned away from this and returned to reality, this worldview would have been destroyed. And all will die.
‘You might think that this is a game, but it’s definitely not.’
It reassured me that ‘logout’ did not appear as a system and appeared in the form of such a crack.
This is a different world, not a game.
If I overcome that rift, it means that I in the VR device do not open my eyes, but appear on Earth as it is.
The dream that I saw in Predictive Dreams and returned to active duty. That was obviously thanks to the physical abilities I currently have. Above all else, I couldn’t come here and leave.
I plan to use this rift as a last resort. In the end, if we can’t stop the destruction of this world.
bang bang! Then someone hurriedly knocked on the door. I was just about to sleep, so I found it. I staggered up and opened the door.
Standing in front of the door was Baron Line Castell. It looked like his gray hair had been swept up by the wind.
“after. luckily there was Something is wrong, Seo Ji-han!”
The message I received earlier said nothing happened. Could it have happened in between? I waited anxiously for Castell’s answer.
“The 50th floor collapsed. It is said that erosion has entered the 40th floor.”
The answer did not disappoint.
“Damn, you don’t even give me a break.”
I hurriedly changed my clothes and moved while carrying my holy sword. Rhine Castell followed. As we moved to the student council room, Castel explained the current situation of the tower.
“So the 50th floor was swallowed up by erosion, right? The monsters that have been strengthened in the meantime are pushing them away.”
“Yes. From what I heard, they kept blocking it at some point, but now that seems to be impossible. Perhaps there is a point where the temple has been withdrawn.”
“no. I just feel bad for something.”
There is a ‘child of prophecy’ among the top powers.
If there is a difference from foreknowledge dream, the ‘prediction’ personality of the child of prophecy is that there is no limit to see the future.
Foreknowledge could try to change the future by seeing the ending, but it is not ‘prediction’. Seeing a future with a series of results, I was able to create a butterfly effect depending on my choice, leading to a different future.
In fact, it was only last year that the erosion went down to the 50th floor.
From then until now, the erosion has been prevented by the push of the wizard and the Awoken, but apart from that, the power of prophecy must have worked. If you don’t stop there, you’ll see that more erosion will come.
However, if there is a disadvantage different from foresight dreams, foreknowledge is that a lot of variables can occur.
Perhaps in the future that the child of prophecy saw around last year, Noah Park would have been dealt with by Irtish. It must have been a plan to control Noah Park, who was engulfed in erosion, to prevent the erosion coming down from the tower.
But the plan was shattered by me.
In the end, there were variables for Yeji as there were many futures to see. And in order to reduce such errors, we try to reinforce the process to the desired future.
…and yet, the fact that the 50th floor was swallowed up by erosion means that it has reached a level that even foresight cannot handle.
‘There is no reason to be pushed out on purpose.’
The fact that the 50th floor was eroded meant that the power of the 50th floor manager was lost. Above all, it is the 50th floor, where many people live along with the 25th floor. Even if people were evacuated little by little due to the defense battle for several months, many people would still be living there.
“How long is the imperial family on the front line?”
“We also withdrew around the same time as the temple.”
“Okay. It is definitely the right time.”
“Isn’t it the temple and the imperial family’s fault that the 50th floor suffered?”
“uh. In the first place, the imperial family was meant to hunt the coming monsters. The temple only helps a little in preventing erosion. If it had been possible to prevent it with just having divine power, it would have hurt the erosion earlier. It should have been entirely done by the Tower forces to stop the erosion coming down.”
Erosion also falls into the category of properties of magic called black magic. Just by looking at what Arihan Hector dealt with, it was clear that this was a fact.
Whoa. Thanks to the haste, we arrived at the main building quickly. Inside, the Imperial Knights Templar and the Holy Knights were keeping a distance.
As they greeted me, I went up the stairs to the floor where the student council room was.
[-I have to go up now.]
[-It would be more dangerous. Rather, I think that the more you do this, the more you need to prepare and go up.]
[-Yeah, the imperial family is downstairs, isn’t it?!]
Inside the well-soundproofed student council room, there was a conversation that was so intense that the sound escaped.
“I saw you fighting….”
“Isn’t that good enough?”
I knocked and went inside with Castel. Then, from the inside, several eyes are focused on me.
“Where are you going in this situation?”
“I hope you don’t leave your seat, warrior.”
Astiel and Yuria’s pin glasses fell directly into me.
Castell was behind me and immediately opened the distance, fearing that I would be swept away together. In addition to Astiel and Yuria, the staff of the Yoosung Academy were visible inside. There was a layer of whether he took the position of the Yoosung Academy.
Layette told me.
“So what did you do to leave your seat?”
“I came here to practice magic with Ahat-sama.”
I don’t need to tell you if it’s a wind attribute. Once I entered, the paused conversation resumed.
“…what is certain is that in order to break through that erosion, you need the power of the Holy Sword.”
Yuria nodded at Astiel’s words.
“I agree with that.”
“Are you going to go up or not? This debate needs your opinion, Seo-Han.”
Astiel’s eyes turned to me. I sighed in relief at that responsibility. I was debating who would return to Earth or not. I have to make this decision right away.
I looked around and said.
“Is this something I can decide?”
“Well, you are not officially a member of the temple, but you represent our position, right? I can’t say no.”
That’s right. If it wasn’t for the conflict with the original privilege, he would have been working as a member of the shrine. My position was nothing short of ambivalent. Once the candidacy of the saint said this, I should have said something…
I looked at Yuria. Yuria put her arms on the sofa and said.
“Warrior. I don’t think there’s anything good about being in a hurry. Wouldn’t it be better if the Black Hawk restarted and armed the Knights Templar?”
“That’s also true…”
However, there is one thing I want to ask the Imperial Knights, armed with the support of the Black Hawk.
In the meantime, the treatment of monsters that have grown infinitely through erosion. The matter was not urgent in the present situation. Unlike erosion, they were dead creatures anyway. However, erosion was an energy that could not be pushed away at will.
“In my opinion, the imperial family doesn’t like it, so you can’t force the unfinished coalition to move. Also, you can’t leave the temple unattended. If the 44th-floor temple becomes a line of defense against erosion, that would be a big deal.”
“okay. There may be spies.”
“First of all, I need to meet and talk with the heads of state who were fighting on the front line.”
In the end, there was only one opinion that could be negotiated.
“We select people to climb from the union and enter the tower together with the temple.”
